Your analysis though was dead-on... much better than a previous expert on the thread (and all the analysts calling it a screaming buy)! It was an educational experience for me and it has added a few more factors for me to think about before investing in an individual stock. I don't worry about price swings if I am long (I have a bunch of intel I bought in the 80's and 90's in my SEP-IRA for example)! Happy Holidays, Shane

Zeev, I could have saved $40,000 if I had listened to you when you first posted -- but I didn't want to walk away from the $25,000 paper loss I already had, and I was in denial that the stock would collapse completely. Of course, I could have saved it all if I hadn't become attracted to the stock by the "analysis" of the earlier experts on this thread, who after building up great interest in the stock, snuck out around 9 1/2 without telling anybody until several days later. This was going to be my best investing year ever, but CTYS took that all away, and I'll finish this year and maybe even next year flat. I'll definitely pay attention to you in the future. - Charles
